Tampa Self Defense Classes

Although martial arts are great for exercise and sport, they are not effective in real-world self defense because unless you’re an expert, when your adrenaline shoots up, you will lose your ability to use complex motor skills. My program is not a martial art and harnesses your pre-wired, instinctive reaction to a sudden violent attack. We weaponize movements your body will automatically use in an attack.

I am a dedicated trainer that will take your personal needs into consideration when building a holistic training plan that will help you reach your desired results. With over 10 years of teaching experience in boxing, kickboxing, bodyweight boot camp, and personal training – I am ready to take your training to the next level! Training with me is about building confidence and learning skills that will build a strong foundation for your physical and mental health. I will push you to the next level to exceed your personal goals! Let’s work together to build the best version of you! 💪
